Section D8: Creating Server Profiles

Server Profiles are managed objects that specify supported settings for the selected Server Hardware Type (e.g. Hardware

Platform, Adapter Layout/Network Connections, BIOS Settings) and Enclosure Group (e.g. Networks based on Logical

Interconnect), and can be left Unassigned for use as a Template. A Firmware Baseline (Policy) is set within the Server Profile,

which will automatically update the firmware prior to assigning and configuring the Server Profile to the Device Bay it’s

assigned.

In this chapter, you will first create a Server Profile to be used as a Template that defines specific elements. The Server

Profile Template will then be copied and assigned to a Server Hardware Device.

Create Server Profile for Template Use

Creating a Server Profile Template is simply defining the Server Hardware as Unassigned. Specify the Server Hardware Type

and Enclosure Group the Server Profile will be bound to, and then all other profile settings.
